Pomegranate Glazed Pork Chops

A few days ago I received a case of POM Wonderful to try and after drinking a couple of glasses of the jewel toned juice on it's own, I decided it would pair perfectly with the pork chops I had sitting in my refrigerator. What I came up with isn't fancy or fussy to make... but it turned out absolutely delicious and will definitely become a regular dish at our house. The Honey and the kids loved them! And it was so simple that it would make a great weeknight dinner too.

Method:
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Add pork chops and brown well on both sides. Add pomegranate juice, orange juice and zest, garlic, rosemary, and brown sugar to skillet and stir to combine. Lower heat to medium and allow pork chops to simmer until the sauce has reduced and thickened and the pork chops are cooked throughly (160-170*F) This should take no longer than 30 minutes. Serve pork chops immediately with a drizzle of sauce. Serves 4-6

I wanted to ask you if you've ever made homemade Rice Pudding before. I made it for the first time today from scratch and it is TO DIE FOR.Would you be interested in trying it and spreading around the goodness?

Those look really tasty. I had a recipe to try that was made with pommegranate juice and I had none (and I didn't feel like a trip to town) so I used some cranberries-made them tender and yummy, so want to try it with the juice next!
